Nominations for the annual pro bono service awards, which honor lawyers, law firms and associations that have contributed extraordinary pro bono service as well as judges that have served the public as it relates to pro bono legal services is now open. The nomination forms are available on The Florida Bar’s website and must be submitted by Friday, October 4, 2024, no later than 5:30 p.m.

Pro bono publico means “for the public good,” and pro bono legal service is just one way that attorneys do their part to help make their communities better.

Each year Florida Bar members report donating millions of hours and dollars to help Floridians who cannot afford a lawyer with civil legal matters. During the 2022-2023 fiscal year, Florida Bar members donated 1.5 million hours and over 7.4 million dollars to legal aid organizations.
